Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to electronic/mechanical connections between an electronic device and an electronic-signal source, and more particularly to an articulable projecting plug for making such connections between such a device and source.
  • an electronic device that includes a monitor to be able to position selectively the monitor for comfortable viewing angles.
  • Such electronic device may be any of various devices including televisions or computer monitors.
  • the user When using such a device, the user is normally sitting in a room or some other type of enclosure or compartment.
  • other enclosures may include the cockpit or passenger area of an airplane.
  • monitor/television will be referred to simply as a monitor, and it should be understood that by monitor applicant refers to any type of device for displaying audio/visual or visual information to a viewer.
  • Prior art proposals involving stands for the monitor provide for a certain amount of adjustability including a swivel mechanism or a tilt feature.
  • the stand-based systems are designed for use in relatively stationary settings where there is room to place the monitor on a stand, with the stand usually being placed on a desk or table.
  • ergonomics is an applied science that coordinates the design of devices and physical working/use conditions with the capacities and requirements of the user. Focusing on the aforementioned aircraft setting, the physical conditions of the passenger area do not provide a lot of room for movement by the passenger, or for auxiliary furniture such as desks, tables and other platforms. Similarly, pilots and other airline-support personnel occupy work areas such as the cockpit which present spaces which are equally, if not more, cramped with minimal room for performing their duties.
  • monitors In the aircraft setting, such monitors are used by pilots and support personnel in the cockpit and work areas, as well as by passengers in the passenger area. Usually such monitors are fixedly mounted in the interior structure of the aircraft and therefore suffer from the drawback of not being adjustable for individual viewers. In other words, these prior art systems are not ergonomically correct for a wide variety of users.
  • U.S. Patent No. 4,647,980 to Steventon et al. proposes a relatively complicated system of mounting television receiver modules in the back of an aircraft passenger seat, such as within the headrest portion of the seat, with the television screen facing backward for viewing by a passenger sitting in the seat immediately behind such headrest.
  • Steventon et al. note that the television screen can be angularly oriented within the chassis at a selected tilt angle which is generally complimentary to the average reclined angle of such passenger seats.
  • Problems with the proposal in Steventon et al. include that the television receiver modules are mounted in a preset, fixed position without allowing for adjustment by individual passengers.
  • the receiver modules are removable, the removing procedure is somewhat complicated by multiple plugs, thereby requiring a two-handed mounting operation.
  • U.S. Patent No. 4,982,996 to Vottero-Fin et al. discloses an automotive seating system that includes an armrest of a front seat with an open back end in which is placed a television set.
  • the television screen is viewable by passengers seated in a backseat when the armrest is swung to an operating position that makes the armrest's back end visible to such passengers.
  • the television set is fixedly attached in the armrest and associated mounting members do not allow for selective adjustment of it for improved viewing.
  • momtor mounting systems designed so that a given monitor may be plugged into any one of multiple ports located within the passenger area.
  • airline companies could offer customers an optional, individual television service. Suitable ports could be installed adjacent each passenger seat and airline employees could ar- ⁇ out such televisions with corresponding mounting systems to customers on a e basis.
  • Such a television service could be provided in the same way that airlines presently offer audio service by handing out headphones to customers who can use them by inserting them in a jack provided in their seat.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such a device that enables one-handed connecting of the monitor to the electronic-signal source and provides for mounting of the momtor adjacent an electronic-signal port.
  • a further object is to provide such a device that is easily connectable to multiple ports so that a momtor placed on such device may be used interchangeably in any one of the ports.
  • a still further object is to provide such a device that is easily convertible for mounting on either the right or left side of a user.
  • the invention achieves the above objects by providing an articulable projecting plug that makes a mechanical connection between an electronic signal port and housing/support structure associated with an electronic device, and accommodates electronic communication between a signal source and such device by establishing contact between a first end of a conductor that is connectable with such a device and such port.
  • the plug includes a joining member structured to bring the plug into contact with the port and hold them both in such joined relationship.
  • the joining member includes an outer surface and holder structure for holding the first end of such elongate conductor structure so that joinder of the plug with the port will also result in contact between such first end and the port.
  • the plug also includes an elongate projecting member terminating with first and second ends, with the first end being pivotably connected to the joining member so that the projecting member extends from it and away from the port, and is articulable in a pivot plane.
  • the projecting member also includes a connector located adjacent its second end for fastening to such housing/support structure of the electronic device.
  • the plug includes a receptacle mounted adjacent the port for receiving the joining member.
  • the receptacle also includes a locking mechanism allowing for one-handed connection of the joining member with the receptacle.
  • Fig. 1 is an isometric view of the invention in a partially open, articulated position holding a flat-screen television, and in an unjoined position with the receptacle which is located in the arm of an aircraft seat.
  • Fig. 2 is like Fig. 1 except that the invention has been pivoted in the pivot plane to a closed position, and is joined with the receptacle.
  • Fig. 3 is a top view of the receptacle showing the video-signal port and the locking mechanism.
  • Fig. 4 is a side elevational view of the receptacle.
  • Fig. 5A is a side sectional view along line 5-5 of Figs. 3 and 4 showing portions of the locking mechanism with the mechanism in a locked position.
  • Fig. 5B is like Fig. 5A except that the locking mechanism is in an unlocked position.
  • Fig. 6A is a side sectional view along line 6-6 of Figs. 3 and 4 showing the joining member in the receptacle with the locking mechanism in a locked position.
  • Fig. 6B is like Fig. 6A except that the locking mechanism is in an unlocked position and the joining member is being removed from the receptacle.
  • Figs. 1 and 2 show the articulable projecting plug of the present invention at 10 for holding a momtor such as a flat- screen television, a fragmentary section of which is shown by dashed lines 11.
  • the term momtor is meant to refer to any display for an electronic or avionic device which is capable of displaying audio/visual or visual information.
  • Plug 10 includes joining structure 12 constructed to bring the plug into contact with an electronic/video port such as jack 14 (Fig. 3) and hold them both in a joined relationship like that shown at 16 in Fig. 2.
  • joining structure 12 includes an outer surface 18 in which a recess 20 is formed for use in connection with a to-be- described locking mechanism for holding releasably joining structure 12 in a space 22 defined by a receptacle 24.
  • joining structure 12 includes sloping edge 12a and curved edge 12b, the significance of which will become apparent after referring to the description of the locking mechanism provided below.
  • receptacle 24 is placed in an open hole of an arm 26 of an aircraft seat (undepicted). Receptacle 24 is fixedly positioned to a frame member 26a.
  • the receptacle is positioned so that it is flush with the top surface of arm 26 and it may be covered with a suitable hinged cover (undepicted). It should be understood that receptacle 24 could be positioned in any interior wall or other structure adjacent the viewing area.
  • joining structure 12 includes a lead end
  • Joining structure 12 also includes holder structure 34 for holding first end 32a so that joinder of plug 10 with jack 14 by placing it into space 22 of receptacle 24 will result in contact between first end 32a and jack 14.
  • plug 10 also includes elongate projecting structure 36 with first and second ends 38a, b.
  • First end 38a is pivotedly connected to joining structure 12 using suitable means.
  • end 38a may be formed with arcuate arms 40a, t> which are fittable around a bearing 42 which is rotatably positioned in the end of joining structure 12 that is opposite lead end 28.
  • Arms 40a, b may be tightened around bearing 42 by actuating a fastener such as turning an alien screw 43 (Figs. 6A-6B) which is positioned in a hole 44 formed in arm 40a and extendable into a threaded bore (undepicted) formed in arm 40b.
  • projecting structure 36 is articulable bidirectio ⁇ ally, as shown by arrows at 46, preferably in a pivot plane that is substantially normal to the long axis joining structure 12. It should be understood that modifications to the pivotable connection between projecting structure 36 and joining structure 12 would make it possible to select a variety of pivot planes and it is by no means a requirement of the invention that the pivot plane be substantially normal to the long axis of joining structure 12.
  • second end 381> is provided with a connector such as a bearing 48 which is rotatably positionable in it.
  • the top of bearing 48 is rotatably positionable in a suitable hole formed in housing/support structure 50.
  • Housing/support structure 50 may be thought of as being part of projecting structure 36 so that projecting structure 36 could be said to include a first elongate projecting member 52 and a second elongate projecting member 54.
  • Second projecting member 54 includes a connector for attaching to upright support structure 56 and such a connector may take the form of one or more screws, two of which are shown at 58 in Fig. 1. Still referring to Figs.
  • upright support structure 56 is preferably formed with two upright arms 60a, and a tilt bracket 62 opposite ends of which are pivotably attached to the upright arms using suitable means such as bearings, one of which is shown at 64.
  • the bearings are attachable to bracket 62 using suitable fasteners such as screws 66, and are attachable to arms 60a, using fasteners such as alien screw 67 (Fig. 2).
  • Figs. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of the present invention that is designed for mounting on the right side of a user.
  • plug 10 could be easily converted for left-side mounting by simply detaching bracket 62 from arms 60a, b, turning it 180°, and reattaching it to the arms.
  • tilt bracket 62 is pivotable selectively in a plane different from the pivot plane to allow the user to selectively adjust, or tilt, the momtor for improved, preferably ergonomically correct viewing.
  • conductor 32 is positionable inside plug 10 with first end 32a held by holder structure 34 and its second end 32b_ projecting out of projecting structure 36 for connection to television 11.
  • second end 32b is shown oriented generally for such connection, with end 32b being freely movable to make such connection with television 11 (not shown in Fig. 2), as between bracket 62 and member 54).
  • Such positioning is made possible by forming an open channel in both joining structure 12 (see conductor 32 placed in such channel in Figs. 6A-6B) and in projecting structure 36 (see conductor 32 in such channel in Fig.l and exiting such channel in Fig. 2).
  • the preferred locking mechanism is shown generally at 68 and includes a laterally disposed bar 70 that is formed with a protrusion 72 which extends into space 22.
  • bar 70 is positionable in an open section 74 formed in receptacle 24.
  • Bar 70 is also formed with an opening 76 for receiving a wedge 78 that extends downwardly from, and is attached to, a pushbutton 80.
  • a laterally disposed bar 70 that is formed with a protrusion 72 which extends into space 22.
  • bar 70 is positionable in an open section 74 formed in receptacle 24.
  • Bar 70 is also formed with an opening 76 for receiving a wedge 78 that extends downwardly from, and is attached to, a pushbutton 80.
  • a pushbutton 80 As perhaps best shown in Fig.
  • push-button 80 is fitted with three vertical-aligner pins 81 that extend laterally into vertical tracks, two of which are shown by dashed lines 82 in Fig. 1, formed in receptacle 24. The pins are received in the tracks to ensure that the pushbutton will move only vertically.
  • protrusion 72 in a first position blocking upward movement of joining structure 12.
  • Protrusion 72 is movable to this first position by inserting joining structure 12 into receptacle 24 with sloping edge 12a glidably moving along angled surface 72a. Because bar 70 (and thus protrusion 72) is spring-loaded with respect to horizontal movement in open section 74 of receptacle 24, downward movement of joining member 12 will cause gliding movement between sloping edge 12a and angled edge 72a.
  • articulable projecting plug 10 of the present invention is usable to make a mechanical connection between an electronic-signal port such as jack 14 and housing/support structure 50 which is associated with an electronic/avionic device such as television 11.
  • Plug 10 also accommodates electronic communication between a signal source (undepicted) and television 11 by establishing contact between first end 32a of conductor 32 and jack 14, with conductor 32 being connectable via its second end 32b_ to television 11.
  • plug 10 is articulable in the direction of arrows 46 in a pivot plane.
  • the user can also move television 11 in a plane that is different from the pivot plane by moving tilt bracket 62 in the direction of arrows 92 in Figs. 1 and 2.
  • the user locks plug 10 in receptacle 24 by inserting joining structure 12 into space 22.
  • such movement causes protrusion 72 of bar 70 (Fig. 5A) to move to a first position blocking upward movement of sloping edge 12a thus blocking upward movement of joining structure 12.
  • the user unlocks plug 10 from receptacle 24 by pushing downwardly on pushbutton 80 which causes wedge 78 to move downwardly, thereby moving bar 70 laterally against spring-loaded tension.
  • Such movement of bar 70 causes protrusion 72 to move to a second position shown in Fig. 6B.
  • the second position is out of blocking engagement with sloping edge 12a, with the result being that joining member 12 can be moved upwardly and out of receptacle 24 in the direction of arrow 90.
  • plug 10 could be easily interchangeably mounted in any one of such receptacles to establish communication with an associated signal port (like jack 14). In this way, plug 10 could be used by airline companies to offer individual television service to customers. While the present invention has been shown and described with reference to the foregoing preferred embodiment, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that other changes in form and detail may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
